    5/1/2025 Nassau Bahamas

    I did some quick math. A 6000lpm engine, is roughly 1500 gpm. The 1 thing that did catch my eye, other then donated units, is the age. The youngest unit i saw was roughly 19. I volunteered in Polk County Fl on a similar engine to the Freightliners M2 106. It was a lot of things, comfortable...

    5/1/2025 Nassau Bahamas

    I'm not sure which fire it was, but Nassau was soliciting firefighting help from the cruise ships. BTW I did find this. Hopetown has a boat at least.

    5/1/2025 Nassau Bahamas

    From talking to people that deal with building in the Bahamas, apparently its not the easiest thing in the world. Contracts are written in pencil and invisible ink and the bureaucracy is worse than some cities here. Every body has their hand in anything. I read an article where the tourism head...

    5/1/2025 Nassau Bahamas

    I would agree. I was in Nassau one time on a cruise and 1 of their engines went by while we were looking around. Had 2 people on it. Didn't look like they had too much on the rig from what I remember. Not knocking them, just an observation. I don't think they have a governing body for the fire...

Witness reported several booms as the fire jumped from 1 bldg to the next. The Nassau FD, was short handed as several units had been sent to Freeport to battle the brush...

    REV group breakdown

    There is a common spec for each type of unit manufacturers offer. There's actually a government bid page where the major makers have a basic unit for a given price. And all of the makers, had very similar units.and very similar prices. And you couldn't change much on the spec. For example...

    4/16/25 Staten Island 3rd Alarm Box 0373

    I can honestly say I worked a fire similar to this once. And the fire Marshall who was a very religious woman investigated it.

    PARITY ?

    Just a thought, if the politicians let them do their job and stood behind them when fingers start pointing, instead of throwing them under a bus, might make a little bit of a difference

    District Fire Dept Fl ( Formerly Reedy Creek FD) EPCOT 3/22/2025

    Wouldn't have been much to see. Park ops closed the entire area and pushed everyone out. And Station 1 literally is almost across the street. It's behind the American Pavillion. There's a bridge that connects the Avenue of the Americas and station 1 on Buena Vista Drive. Has a gate and a pop up...
